Pest Pictures Ever

I've always been confused by the "picture says a 1000 words" phrase, mainly because my photography is considerably worse than my writing. I can write 1000 words on, say, swimming in mud and make it sound appealing, but it'd be hard for me to take a picture of it and make anyone want to dive in. I guess that's why I'm so stunned by these insect pics. I'm not particularly interested in looking at insects (Mary's post aside), but I just stumbled across these macro photos on the knuttz page, and the photos make the creatures look stunning. It almost makes me ashamed to own so many cans of Raid.

Also on Mental Floss:

DID YOU KNOW? Marlon Brando hated memorizing lines so much that he posted cue cards everywhere to help him get through scenes.
He even asked for lines to be written on an actress's posterior. (That request was denied.)
